    Added processing /compute URL

    After implementing blueprint "Ability to run some Nova services under Apache2"(
    https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/run-nova-services-under-apache2)
    it becomes possible not to use separate ports for each openstack service but
    share 80 port with different URL prefixes. Mailing list thread with
    discussion the details of this feature:
    http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-June/067147.html.
    Openstack wiki page with mapping urls to services:
    https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/URLs.
    Function remove_version_from_href was corrected: API version must be present
    in the end of SCRIPT_NAME.
    Devstack has been updated here: Ic84b5c0dc0726662470ef9c076a0cadca55a3917

    If nova-api service is started by Apache (or similar),
    using 'Alias' directive script name contains alias-prefix.
    We get things like: '/ALIAS/NAME/v2', '/ALIAS/NAME/v2.1'

    This change makes sure we remove only the last part of URL,
    to make sure we don't hit problems where ALIAS has a version in it.

Where in the Nova tree does this need to be updated?

[Alexandra Settle (alexandra-settle)]

Marian - could you please let the bug triagers know what the impact is here and where this is to be fixed?

With the recent work by Sean Dague and others to make endpoints versionless in the service catalog, there's nothing to document here I don't believe. The work that was done was in multiple projects, such as nova, to eliminate the use of versioning on endpoints. This is a summary:

Sean Dague is reviving the project by starting work on a service type authority, see:

Closing this in openstack-manuals.
